The Brightest Heaven -- Fantasy
from The Wild Rose Press
Urania, muse of Astronomy is disconsolate: although science flourishes, true inspiration seems to have disappeared. Then she meets Daniel, a single shining soul in a bland universe. But Daniel's research is taking him toward the discovery of interdimensional travel. This, the gods cannot allow, for it would threaten the very fabric of the universe. Urania seeks Athena's counsel. In her wisdom, the goddess gives the hero a choice: he can accept to hide his research forever, in exchange for immortal life with Urania, and watching his grown daughter prosper and succeed in her field under the Muse's tutelage.
Or he can lose everything, forget his discoveries, and be nothing more than one of the leading experts in quantum physics – aware that there's more, but unable to move forward in his research. And Urania would have to leave him and his daughter forever.
